Remote Renewal — FAQ
Why renew instead of just buying a new remote?
Renewal is meaningfully cheaper than a new universal remote, and a lot cheaper than an OEM. If you already have a working remote sitting in a drawer, it's the obvious move.
Can every remote be renewed?
Most Xhorse and many OEM remotes can. Some heavily locked OEM remotes can't — bring it in and I'll tell you in five minutes whether it's renewable.
Does renewal damage the remote?
No. It's a software-level reset. Buttons, casing, battery and circuit board are untouched.
